Working with HTML code
For an experienced user being familiar with HTML it sometimes is quicker to manipulate a certain portion of HTML directly instead of having to wade through GUI elements. For this reason in stage 10 of application SimplyHTML a way to work on the HTML representation of any given text document is implemented.
To see and edit the HTML representation of a given text document
The display will switch from layout view to HTML code view. In the HTML code view the structural information for a particular document is shown along with its content. Tags and attributes are mixed with plain text.
The HTML code view does not show how the plain text will look. Instead it highlights the structural portions of HTML and allows to work on the HTML code.
All changes to the HTML code are transformed to the resulting layout automatically when switching back to layout view (clicking on tab Layout view at the bottom of the editor pane, that is).
Important: To work on HTML code should only be done by users being experienced in HTML use. Changing HTML code can destroy the structure of the document leading to unpredictable results in the layout of respective document and even loss of content.
Note: With bigger documents it can take a short while to display the HTML code initially.
